[Use of endometrial biopsy on first day of cycle, CO2-hysterosalpingography, and PSP-hydrotubation in ambulatory diagnosis of female sterility (author's transl)].
Three techniques for ambulatory diagnosis of female sterility are compared and critically assessed for their potential benefits and drawbacks. They are endometrial biopsy on the first day of cycle, hysterosalpingography in combination with CO2 pertubation, and hydrotubation, using 0.06 per cent phenolphthalein (Speck's test). There were many more inherent benefits than drawbacks, primarily with regard to informative value and avoidance of undesirable side effects. Good economy, convenient technical applicability, and relief of ward and operation theatre personnel are additional factors in favour of the above ambulatory approaches.
